> > I've actually toyed with the idea of proposing that we *intentionally* impersonate the regulars in this forum, for the sake of parody and a little fun. I figure anyone out there who can use fifteen commas and a good dose of parenthetical statements in multiple paragraph-long sentences, and take ages to get to the point (if there is one), can do a perfectly passable "Issachar" post. Probably some folks out there could do an ersatz "Howard" post, a parodied "GreenJeanz" post, or a faux "Faux Pas" post (sorry, couldn't resist). And, of course, the person who responds to each and every one of these imitation posts has just successfully impersonated a "Darien" post. :-)

Ha ha! I just happened to be listening to a "They Might Be Giants" album ("John Henry") this morning, and also skimmed a list of their albums over on Amazon.com, contemplating which one I'd like to buy next. I *dig* coincidences....and TMBG.
